> Situation:
> I maintain (with mailman) a number (20-ish going to be 100-ish)
> mailinglists for our internal users.
> When I create a new mailinglist I usually add a number of users
> This means that these users get yet another default mailman passwd.
> What I want is to synchronise all user:passwd combinations over all the
> lists.
> e.g. currently I have
> List 1 (user:passwd)
> A:asdf
> B:sdfg
> C:dfgh
> List 2
> A:erty
> C:rtyu
> D:ytur
> List 3
> A:lkjh
> D:moiu
> What I want is someway to get this to be
> List 1 (user:passwd)
> A:asdf
> B:sdfg
> C:dfgh
> List 2
> A:asdf
> C:dfgh
> D:ytur
> List 3
> A:asdf
> D:ytur

> Unfortunately I have 0 experience in programming python.
